The kinetic energy of the car when it reaches the bottom of the hill is about A. 0.466 J

$\texttt{ }$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<em>Let's recall </em><em>Kinetic Energy</em><em> Formula as follows:</em>

$\large {\boxed{Ek = \frac{1}{2}mv^2} }$

Ek = Kinetic Energy ( Joule )

m = mass of the object ( kg )

v = speed of the object ( m/s )

Let us now tackle the problem !

$\texttt{ }$

<u>Given:</u>

mass of the car = m = 0.05 kg

initial speed of toy car = u = 0 m/s

initial height position of the car = h₁ = 0.95 m

final height position of the car = h₂ = 0 m

gravitational acceleration = g = 9.81 m/s²

<u>Asked:</u>

final kinetic energy of the car = Ek₂ = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>We will use </em><em>Conservation of Energy</em><em> to solve this problem:</em>

$Ep_1 + Ek_1 = Ep_2 + Ek_2$

$mgh_1 + \frac{1}{2} m u^2 = mgh_2 + Ek_2$

$mgh_1 + \frac{1}{2} m (0)^2 = mg(0) + Ek_2$

$mgh_1 = Ek_2$

$Ek_2 = 0.05 \times 9.81 \times 0.95$

$Ek_2 \approx 0.466 \texttt{ J}$

In a large centrifuge used for training pilots and astronauts, a small chamber is fixed at the end of a rigid arm that rotates i

RSB [31]

a) The length of the arm of the centrifuge is 10.9 m

b) The angular acceleration is $2.7 rad/s^2$

Explanation:

a)

In a uniform circular motion, the centripetal acceleration is given by

$a_c=\omega^2 r$

where:

$\omega$ is the angular speed of the circular motion

r is the radius of the circle

For the centrifuge in this problem, we have:

$\omega=1.7 rad/s$ is the angular speed

The centripetal acceleration is 3.2 times the acceleration due to gravity ( $g=9.8 m/s^2$ ), so:

$a_c=3.2 g = 3.2(9.8)=31.4 m/s^2$

Therefore, we can re-arrange the previous equation to find r, the radius of the circle (which corresponds to the length of the arm of the centrifuge):

$r=\frac{a_c}{\omega^2}=\frac{31.4}{1.7^2}=10.9 m$

b)

In the second part of the exercise, the centrifuge speeds up from an initial angular speed of 0 to a final angular speed of 1.7 rad/s. The total acceleration experienced at the final moment is

$a=4.4 g$

So, 4.4 times the acceleration due to gravity.

The total acceleration is the resultant of the centripetal acceleration ( $a_c$ ) and the tangential acceleration ( $a_t$ ):

$a=\sqrt{a_c^2+a_t^2}$

We know that:

a = 4.4g

$a_c = 3.2 g$

So, we can find the tangential acceleration:

$a_t = \sqrt{a^2-a_c^2}=\sqrt{(4.4g)^2-(3.2g)^2}=29.6 m/s^2$

The angular acceleration is related to the tangential acceleration by

$\alpha = \frac{a_t}{r}$

where r = 10.9 m is the length of the centrifuge. Substituting,

$\alpha = \frac{29.6}{10.9}=2.7 rad/s^2$

Why is the spectrum of a star called an absorption spectrum?

ladessa [460]

It is called absorption spectrum because a gas of hydrogen will make a line spectrum and if viewed for another angle it would be between a continuum light and a emission line spectrum

1. A rock of granite has a mass of 50 kg. if it’s weight in water

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The first part of the question is asking about BUOYANT FORCE or UPTHRUST.

Upthrust =TRUE WEIGHT-APPARENT WEIGHT

TRUE WEIGHT=mg

TRUE weight=50kg×10m/s²

=500N

upthrust=500N-380N

FB=120N

volume of the rock=mass/density.

since the granite is completely submerged, the volume of the displaced liquid will be equal to the volume of the body.

upthrust=Vdg

120N=V×1000kg/m³×10m/s²

120N=V×10000kg/m²s²

120/10000=V

v=0.012m³

A 1.80-m string of weight 0.0126 N is tied to the ceiling at its upper end, and the lower end supports a weight W. Neglect the v

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

W = 0.135 N

Explanation:

Given:

- y (x, t) = 8.50*cos(172*x -2730*t)

- Weight of string m*g = 0.0126 N

- Attached weight = W

Find:

The attached weight W given that Tension and W are equal.

Solution:

The general form of standing mechanical waves is given by:

y (x, t) = A*cos(k*x -w*t)

Where k = stiffness and w = angular frequency

Hence,

k = 172 and w = 2730

- Calculate wave speed V:

V = w / k = 2730 / 172 = 13.78 m/s

- Tension in the string T:

T = Y*V^2

where Y: is the mass per unit length of the string.

- The tension T and weight attached W are equal:

T = W = Y*V^2 = (w/L*g)*V^2

W = (0.0126 / 1.8*9.81)*(13.78)^2

W = 0.135 N
